How important it is to blanch (not only your almonds…;0)
but everything else in your life! Blanching instead
of just boiling, steaming or roasting or God
forbid frying ;0/ Blanching makes it stop
boiling inside (keeping as much good stuff in
as possible). So far the best way (that
seems to work for me;) is to crack a joke,
regardless of how hurt, angry or super sensitive I
feel at the time). And it doesn’t matter if it’s
not at all on the topic! I don’t
even have to
say it out loud. Sometimes I just say a joke in my mind. And even that seems to
do the trick! I guess there is a certain degree of
easement appears (like a smile;) in my eyes.
And sometimes I just can’t help myself but to
start
laughing, almost uncontrollably (almost being
the key word here;) and that normally
throws my opponent right off the track. But
not in a bad way as there is no malice one can detect in my
eyes or my laughter. I learned that
technique from one of my favourite elephants, who sometimes just
starts (and keeps on) laughing very loudly (no
matter what the subject of conversation
might be;).
It used to piss me off sooo much but then I
learned that it actually does more good than
bad (for both parties;).

Sorry I kind of seem to be deviating from the original topic here. The reason being…I just felt like it;) No… actually, I’m taking back the “sorry” part! As it is my blog and I can write about… whatever I feel like writing about. But I do promise to go back to the original story line (at some point;)
I will be back soon! Stay safe and sane till then!
Love! E ;0)x
P.S. There is an amber weather warning’s been issued by the Met Office for the area where I live. That made me wonder about two things: Is it going to be serious? And why have they chosen amber to be associated with that threat? I think Amber is such a warm, soft and friendly colour, don’t you think?
Storm should really hit the ground running after midnight tonight but for now it almost feels like Christmas (minus the presents of course;). When everybody has stored some food to last a week and is planning to stay home for a while
